Perpetuity

A catalogue of photographs composed during my second leg of the solo trip in India. December, 2015

The theme of the catalogue is Perpetuity. The elements of these images traverse history, music and nature, and, irrespective of the time of origin, have an intrinsic capability of lasting forever, either in their material forms or in the memories of their viewers.
